Story

Throughout this year we will are organising and taking part in various events to support the incredible work carried out by one of our chosen charities, The Matt Hampson Foundation.

This incredible Foundation helps people GET BUSY LIVING again after a life-changing injury - whether its helping them get back into sport or supporting them in adapting to their new life. At their unique facility, The Get Busy Living Centre, beneficiaries are able to receive physiotherapy, specialist personal training, support, mentoring and advice. This was the brainchild of founder and former England and Leicester Tigers rugby player Matt Hampson, who himself experienced a life-changing injury in 2005 leaving him paralysed from the neck down, aged 20.

Building a sense of community is central to the Matt Hampson Foundation. In the aftermath of an incident which leads to a life-changing injury most people and their families feel isolated with an overwhelming sense of loss for what has been taken away from them. By becoming part of the community that Matt has created, beneficiaries of the Foundation are able to draw on the experience and knowledge of people who have been on the same journey. They develop the tools and skills they need to move on as they start to rebuild their lives.

Eventually beneficiaries progress to the point where they become the ones providing the support to others. This in itself is a huge part of their rehabilitation and being able to help others provides a real sense of purpose and identity.
